stripe opinions

Howdy guys i want to put a stripe kit on my car (which is purple so i was thinking silver stripes) and i was thinking of one of these two stripe kits, i know in the end it will be my decision, but i just wanted to see which one you guys perfer

side flag (camaro cut out): http://www.3rdgendecals.com/SideFlags.htm
or
hockey stick (long with 3800 on it): http://www.3rdgendecals.com/HockeySticks.htm

would chrome wheels still go with the stripes that are silver? i wouldnt think so, but ive never seen it before either.

Well thanks in advance guys

Brady

I say go with the stripes, because I think it would look better than the hockey stick on your 4th gen because its 93-97 and is more sharp than the 98-02 model

You can tell it doesnt look as good on the 93-97 model like in this pic..


And here's the 98-02 model..


See it looks better on the late model Camaro than the early one.

No stripes! J/K! I'm not really a fan of stripes, but whatever you like, go for it!

Re: stripe opinions

thats what i was thinking the hockey stripes look better on the 98+ models, at first i saw that stripe set and was like yeah thats what i want, but the more i look at them the more i dont like them, then i saw the side flag and thought those were pretty cool and nobody i know of has those, which do you think would look better, the silver metallic or the reflective white?

White, on dark cars, unless it's black, white stripes is the best option to go. So white>silver

Re: stripe opinions

yeah thats what i was kinda thinking after taking a second look at the silver, would you get the reflective or not? also dont you think the cutout camaro would be better than it printed? so that the purple shows through?

I'd get it reflective or whatever you can afford. What do you mean the cut out camaro better than it printed?

Re: stripe opinions

like you can have the "camaro" printed on the white stripe in the background color wich would be grey i think, or you could have it cut out so it shows the color of your paint. i dunno if that helps explain it or not ... well heres the quote from the page:

"First you can get printed copy. This means the word 'CAMARO' is printed in the same color as the shadow bands, black in the case of light colored vinyls like silver, gold, white, hugger orange, etc.
Secondly you can get cut copy, which means the paint of your car shows through for letters. This is what you do when you're getting black for your pewter car, so your lettering ends up pewter instead of white."

hope this helps explain it

Re: stripe opinions

i agree with almost everything execpt the white reflective, you could go with the silver i think that might look better, but i donno know, if lights shite on it like they show it the picture there it looks bad in the pic, maybe it (white reflective) will look better in person?
